+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++ "The holidays aren't only about the great spiritual issues of our lives. For most of us, they're as much about the near and dear as they are about the high and holy. A Holiday Gathering is certainly near and dear to me, and I hope that its portrayal of a congenial gathering of family and friends will be near and dear to you as well. Of all the holiday rituals, the one I prize the most is the coming together of loved ones in shared celebration. Even if our family circle is small, the Christmas season can become a benchmark of friendship, a time we pause to savor traditions of comfort and joy. I find the settings of A Holiday Gathering exquisitly comfortable. Nestled beneath wintery trees and luminous sky, the rambling village homes gleam with a warm, welcoming light that spills into the street, inviting one and all to join in the gathering. Celebrants gather in quiet groups on porches to visit, gossip, perhaps sing a round of favorite Christmas carols. Vintage cars, Christmas lights, and even a dog or two complete this nostalgic scene. It's what I've come to think of as a "Norman Rockwell Christmas" -- warm, welcoming, traditional." ~~ Thomas Kinkade
